They will run from 10 am to 12 pm, Wednesdays to Fridays until schools resume and hopefully thereon. The course content includes Mavis Beacon for beginners, Ms Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. During the first session, the teacher, Mr Zaccheaus, began by showing students the computer components and accessories and how to switch on a computer.

Arrey Ndifor Mac Antoine, 13, participated in the first session and found learning about computers fun and educative and he wishes to become the best in computer science. He found out about the classes from his mother who heard the announcement over the radio.

Nekwah Boteh Tracy, 17, also participated in the first session and was excited because she has never learned how to use a computer nor ever type. She says it is an experience she will always remember. She found out about it from training with Susan, the programme manager.

Due to Covid-19, SODEI has taken a few Covid-19 measures for its computer classes:
